[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #42651] Incorrect input validation for strings

[Rik]

Update of bug #42651 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Patch Submitted

Follow-up Comment #5:

I'm attaching a patch which makes the input validation for strings stricter. 
I think it is better to warn programmers when a function is being used
incorrectly, rather than to attempt to proceed with bogus input, which
nevertheless can be converted to a string value.

I'll split the other two issues uncovered into new bug reports.
